Are you saying that not 1 minority person has ever benefited from the donation that he made? Is the city of New Orleans, which is known to have multiple great universities as well as a great medical school system, better off today from his monetary generosity?

Is your position that anyone that benefited from slavery or did anything “good” during slavery should never be honored for anything they did?

The Declaration of Independence was written by slave owners, the majority of the founding fathers were slave holders.
